Scope of Award

The syllabus details those areas of knowledge and understanding which a dental nurse needs to develop in order to be able to practise competently. Therefore much of the examination is based on the candidate being able to apply the knowledge in a practical setting.

Each of the sections begins with words such as describe, explain, demonstrate or identify. These indicate the depth of understanding which is required and will form the basis of how the assessment is made in the examination.
